You really want me to embarrass myself, don't you, Sue :(

I can't fault Comcast for this one

OK, when I finished downloading the patch it was necessary for me to re-boot
the computer. As I was doing that, I noticed that the computer was sitting
sort of cockeyed so I reached down and attempted to straighten it out.

When I did that, the cables for the mouse and the keyboard fell out. When I
tried to put them back in I bent a pin on the mouse connector.

It was nothing more that an old man trying (unsuccessfully) to exhibit
manual dexterity. :( again

As the young folk say, "Me bad".

LOL....sorry I asked the question, I didn't mean to embarrass you(VBG).

I use the computer, but when something goes wrong, I yell for my hubby.
Then if things go wrong, it is "his" fault, not mine.

Considering what I have been accused of in this newsgroup, being computer
illiterate is not high on the list :(
